This we can all agree on.

​ So here's to all the fantastic moms, your tireless days are not gone unnoticed, your time is appreciated and your love is reciprocated always!

3D Flower Vase with Paper Flowers

I have this little vase printable available at The Art Dream but for this post I have re-done it a bit and offering some pretty awesome variations. All of my 3D vase options are available below! The blank one is fantastic for creating your own designs, or try one of my spring inspired designs, I bet mom will love them!

Thanks to hellowonderful.co for featuring this project and printable on her website, you can visit and check out an amazing video tutorial! Remember to get creative and fill your vase with unique things just like your mom!

Please remember to download and save the files to your computer and print from there! If you open the file in your browser and print from the internet window the vase will be way too tiny!

I did a test print of the blank vase and it was tiny, only about 2" tall. I checked my settings and it showed 100%. Even when I changed it to 200%, it still did not show up as large as your samples appear to be.

Hey there Beth, yes this happens when you click on the link and print it directly from the internet. Try downloading and saving the file to your computer, then open the file from your downloads folder and print from there! Hope this helps! Thanks for trying the printable!

Hello,
I have also had the same issue. I saved it to my computer and printed it from there, but it still printed very small.
Is there another print out available that is larger?

Thank you

Hi. This looks fantastic. This is me being dumb, but what do you put in the bottom so they don't fall out? Thanks in advance.

Hi Brooke, thanks for reaching out... I just glued my straws to the paper and then glued the flowers to the straws, but if you want to leave the flowers loose, you can glue in some tissue paper perhaps in the bottom of the vase. Shredded paper might work well too!
Hope this helps!

I also tried downloading and saving the file to my computer, then opening the file from my downloads folder and printing it from there but it was the same size as printing it from the internet. Any other suggestions? I really would like my grandchildren to make this for my daughter for Mother's Day.

Thank your for reaching out. This may be fixed in your printer settings. After you hit file then print you should have some printing options. You can try selecting "print actual size" or "fit to page". Each computer is different so I'm not sure what your options are like. If that doesn't work you can try adjusting the size percentage, it should be at 100% but if that also doesn't work try changing it to 120%, 150% etc. Please let me know if this works, your feedback will help me fix future issues. Thanks again!

I tried all of your suggestions. I even tried saving it as a bitmap and jpeg but nothing worked. I asked my computer geek husband to help me and even he couldn't get it to work. I don't understand how others are getting it to work. Any other suggestions? I couldn't print it out in time for Mother's Day but today is my daughter's birthday and I was hoping to have my grandkids do it for her birthday. I would appreciate any possible help!!

Hi Mary, I would really have to see your settings, what kind of computer you're using etc. to really be able to help, but since I can't, what I can do is offer to email you the file if you'd like. The files are PDF, they are supposed to easily transfer and are free of reliance on software, hardware or operating system. Maybe your Adobe Acrobat Reader needs to be updated? You can contact me using the mail icon at the top of my home page next to the other social media icons.

Once you have saved the image of the vase to you computer there is a way you can enlarge it. If you right click on the file it will give you the option to open the file with another programme. If you select Microsoft word it will convert the file from a PDF one allowing you to edit it and make it as large as you want. I hope this helps everyone
